Just to a crack at a few of the categories from a historical perspective…

I keep hearing that the Undertaker is the toughest WWE star “in real life”. I remember seeing a WWE documentary and the overwhelming consensus of wrestlers agreed on this.
What are people basing this on? I know he’s a big guy and likes motorcycles, but is there any record of him brawling outside the ring?
On the Undertaker: Dunno. On different topics regarding him, he is an amazingly strong dude. I forget who the other two wrestlers were, but relatively recently he grabbed two that were definitely both over 200 lb with one-handed choke holds, and lifted both. Not with his legs.
Yeah, only a few inches. But how many can lift, from just below shoulder height, say 200 lb DB’s in each hand, at all? Let alone in the awkward position of having the hands not that close to the body.
Also my ART practitioner says the Undertaker has a house fairly near here, and is known by the neighbors as a nice guy. One Halloween he dressed as himself for the kids coming to the door. That had to be an experience for them, particularly the ones that had no idea who lived at that house.
